I have 5 volumes out of 10 of Mr. Vanderbilt's House and Collection from the Vanderbilt Edition...can someone tell me the difference between the Vanderbilt and Holland editions? Thank you, CapeMay

I can't but wanted to commend you on using your phone to post as I think you may be the first.

This is probably not helpful, but Carnegie Mellon University Library has made their copy of the complete Holland edition available online.

This book was published in two different format.    The book was offered in the "Japan" edition and also the "Holland" edition.    The books are identical.  The Holland edition is a smaller format.

Hope this help.
I tried the link to the holland book online, but it doesn't seem to work. Is this the correct url? I would like to take a look at the information for my plaster research. Best, AM

It worked when I originally posted; not sure what the problem is now. The volumes can still  be found by going through the "front door" Posner Memorial Collection and searching on "Vanderbilt".
Thanks for the link, I am looking at all now.
